Mapping Margaret of Austria

<p>Margaret of Austria’s life took her from the Burgundian court to France, Spain, and the Netherlands. Along the way, she faced a broken betrothal, two marriages, and the demands of a powerful family. She also became one of the most capable political figures of her time.</p><p>In this episode of <em>Dr. Emma and Me</em>, Dr. Emma Cahill Marrón joins me again to follow Margaret’s travels and explore how the places she lived shaped her. We talk about her role in raising the future Charles V, her negotiations with Louise of Savoy, and the remarkable church and tomb she commissioned at Brou.</p><p>--</p><p><strong>Where did Eleanor of Aquitaine’s life take her, and what can those places tell us about her?
